Ok so you assume i lost money.
Like i said lost some and made some i'm actually in profit with the ponzi's (very little).
I am just a normal guy with a steady income making a little extra money trading and found the ponzi thing interesting so i tried some.
But as you most likely know the ponzi's here often dont run long, not because of it collapsing but the owners stealing the coins. I believe a good ponzi can run steady for longer than most here do when the owner does not steal the coins. (and the owner can still make money by just joining the game or fees)

but a ponzi is never fair! never!
it is one of the most unethical games on the planet.
transparency doesn't help...

If the ponzi is transparent everyone knows exactly how much is invested, whats needed get payed and the status of the game, based of this information they can make their own decision to join the game or not.
I dont see how thats not fair?
The thing thats not fair about most ponzi's here is the people that run them.

We already have made a very transparent Pyramid (not a Ponzi, there is a different) at http://cryptopyramid.com/?ref=4. Check us out, and maybe try investing with us! We like to think we're pretty awesome.

If you're interested in purchasing the source code to start up your own site, PM us and we could start such a dialogue.

CryptoPyramid is indeed very transparent and i really like that! However i don't like the way it works with 49% going to the sponsor and 49% to a random user.
I believe distribution is better of when its on "first come first serve" base.
Also im not really interested in buying any code as i believe i am a capable developer and this would be a side project i can enjoy, but thanks for the offer.

Best of luck to you!

We did our Pyramid in the random distribution way so that it can go on forever. The problem with the FIFO (first in, first out) system is that eventually there aren't enough people to keep the Pyramid going, and people stop coming because it's pretty obvious that there's no way they'll get paid. With our method, there's high incentive to attract referrals, and it can keep going forever at all levels instead of just working down the Pyramid giving everyone 125% like most ponzis out there.
